	this is the first song from the 'i am a rock-star' phase, and the full public debut of the new, vocal JOSHUAGABRIEL. recently i had to take a part-time job, and while i would be at work contemplating suicide, one of my basementmates - fellow rock star ZACK ORION - would be at home on my computer in Pro Tools, crafting a new amazing song EVERY DAY in what seemed to be a totally new, original genre. as blown away as i was by this creative output and as happy as i was for my friend, the competitive bastard in me couldn't help but be outraged at this turn of events. here i am sweeping the floor and sitting bored behind a counter while zack was in my room producing a new White Album! to add to this my trip to Miami {with a film crew!} for the WMC got cancelled because the 'producer' turned out be a flake idiot who couldn't handle his part and ended up getting ARRESTED. so i was in a ripe old rage by this point. i had been fired for taking a week of absence from my new job {thank god!}, so on one of the first days back home i decided to show zack what was up and create my own new genre in one day. i laid down a simple, raw beatbox. then recorded a track of me playing a hand drum. on top of that i recorded a live track of electric guitar. i started writing this rhyme to go on top of the whole thing, but while i was practicing it i realized that to get a whole written song really tight and perfect would take a few days. i wasn't really sure where to go from here. later that night i decided to try and off-the-top freestyle over the beat and see what happened. i laid down 3 different freestyles, but i wasn't really thrilled with any of them. It usually takes a little while to get in the loose 'freestyle' zone, and i am not good enough {yet!} to just push record and do a perfect 4:30 of improvised rhyming. i was sitting there kind of bummed and decided to listen to it with 2 of the freestyles playing at once. immediately i was like THAT'S IT! so in this song, there is one freestyle all the way to the left {in the mix}, and one all the way to the right. this song proves that technical ability doesn't really mean much in music. my beatboxing and freestyling are in a very early stage of development, yet this song is like no other you have ever heard. take that Z!!!
